The idea is that if you pit those villains against eachother on a level playing field, they'll improve society on the whole. To a certain extent it's true, and it's only failing in the case of Google/etc because we've allowed mega-companies to become a thing (which distorts the playing field). OTOH we're rapidly heading towards total planetary extinction, so something huge needs to change.
